fill_pool() checks locklessly at the beginning whether the pool has to be
refilled. After that it checks locklessly in a loop whether the free list
contains objects and repeats the refill check.
If both conditions are true, it acquires the pool lock and tries to move
objects from the free list to the pool repeating the same checks again.
There are two redundant issues with that:
1) The repeated check for the fill condition
2) The loop processing
The repeated check is pointless as it was just established that fill is
required. The condition has to be re-evaluated under the lock anyway.
The loop processing is not required either because there is practically
zero chance that a repeated attempt will succeed if the checks under the
lock terminate the moving of objects.
Remove the redundant check and replace the loop with a simple if condition.

fill_pool() uses 'obj_pool_min_free' to decide whether objects should be
handed back to the kmem cache. But 'obj_pool_min_free' records the lowest
historical value of the number of objects in the object pool and not the
minimum number of objects which should be kept in the pool.
Use 'debug_objects_pool_min_level' instead, which holds the minimum number
which was scaled to the number of CPUs at boot time.

After release of the hashbucket lock the tracking object can be modified or
freed by a concurrent thread. Using it in such a case is error prone, even
for printing the object state:
1. T1 tries to deactivate destroyed object, debugobjects detects it,
hash bucket lock is released.
2. T2 preempts T1 and frees the tracking object.
3. The freed tracking object is allocated and initialized for a
different to be tracked kernel object.
4. T1 resumes and reports error for wrong kernel object.
Create a local copy of the tracking object before releasing the hash bucket
lock and use the local copy for reporting and fixups to prevent this.

syzbot is reporting a lockdep warning in fill_pool() because the allocation
from debugobjects is using GFP_ATOMIC, which is (__GFP_HIGH | __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM)
and therefore tries to wake up kswapd, which acquires kswapd_wait::lock.
Since fill_pool() might be called with arbitrary locks held, fill_pool()
should not assume that acquiring kswapd_wait::lock is safe.
Use __GFP_HIGH instead and remove __GFP_NORETRY as it is pointless for
!__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation.

There is an explicit wait-type violation in debug_object_fill_pool()
for PREEMPT_RT=n kernels which allows them to more easily fill the
object pool and reduce the chance of allocation failures.
Lockdep's wait-type checks are designed to check the PREEMPT_RT
locking rules even for PREEMPT_RT=n kernels and object to this, so
create a lockdep annotation to allow this to stand.
Specifically, create a 'lock' type that overrides the inner wait-type
while it is held -- allowing one to temporarily raise it, such that
the violation is hidden.

The recent fix to ensure atomicity of lookup and allocation inadvertently
broke the pool refill mechanism.
Prior to that change debug_objects_activate() and debug_objecs_assert_init()
invoked debug_objecs_init() to set up the tracking object for statically
initialized objects. That's not longer the case and debug_objecs_init() is
now the only place which does pool refills.
Depending on the number of statically initialized objects this can be
enough to actually deplete the pool, which was observed by Ido via a
debugobjects OOM warning.
Restore the old behaviour by adding explicit refill opportunities to
debug_objects_activate() and debug_objecs_assert_init().

Statically initialized objects are usually not initialized via the init()
function of the subsystem. They are special cased and the subsystem
provides a function to validate whether an object which is not yet tracked
by debugobjects is statically initialized. This means the object is started
to be tracked on first use, e.g. activation.
This works perfectly fine, unless there are two concurrent operations on
that object. Schspa decoded the problem:
T0 T1
debug_object_assert_init(addr)
lock_hash_bucket()
obj = lookup_object(addr);
if (!obj) {
unlock_hash_bucket();
- > preemption
lock_subsytem_object(addr);
activate_object(addr)
lock_hash_bucket();
obj = lookup_object(addr);
if (!obj) {
unlock_hash_bucket();
if (is_static_object(addr))
init_and_track(addr);
lock_hash_bucket();
obj = lookup_object(addr);
obj->state = ACTIVATED;
unlock_hash_bucket();
subsys function modifies content of addr,
so static object detection does
not longer work.
unlock_subsytem_object(addr);
if (is_static_object(addr)) <- Fails
debugobject emits a warning and invokes the fixup function which
reinitializes the already active object in the worst case.
This race exists forever, but was never observed until mod_timer() got a
debug_object_assert_init() added which is outside of the timer base lock
held section right at the beginning of the function to cover the lockless
early exit points too.
Rework the code so that the lookup, the static object check and the
tracking object association happens atomically under the hash bucket
lock. This prevents the issue completely as all callers are serialized on
the hash bucket lock and therefore cannot observe inconsistent state.

Delayed kobject debugging (CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE) prints the kobject
pointer that's being released in kobject_release() before scheduling a
randomly delayed work to do the actual release work.
If the caller of kobject_put() frees the kobject upon return then this will
typically emit a debugobject warning about freeing an active timer.
Usually the release function is the function that does the kfree() of the
struct containing the kobject.
For example the following print is seen
kobject: 'queue' (ffff888114236190): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 1000)
------------[ cut here ]------------
ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: kobject_delayed_cleanup+0x0/0x390
but the kobject printk cannot be matched with the debug object printk
because it could be any number of kobjects that was released around that
time. The random delay for the work doesn't help either.
Print the address of the object being tracked to help to figure out which
kobject is the problem here. Note that this does not use %px here to match
the other %p usage in debugobject debugging. Due to %p usage it is required
to disable pointer hashing to correlate the two pointer printks.

The debugobject core could be slightly harder to corrupt if the
debug_obj_descr would be a pointer to const memory.
Depending on the architecture, const data structures are placed into
read-only memory and thus are harder to corrupt or hijack.
This descriptor is used to fix up stuff like timers and workqueues when
core kernel data structures are busted, so moving the descriptors to
read-only memory will make debugobjects more resilient to something going
wrong and then corrupting the function pointers inside struct
debug_obj_descr.

The counters obj_pool_free, and obj_nr_tofree, and the flag obj_freeing are
read locklessly outside the pool_lock critical sections. If read with plain
accesses, this would result in data races.
This is addressed as follows:
* reads outside critical sections become READ_ONCE()s (pairing with
WRITE_ONCE()s added);
* writes become WRITE_ONCE()s (pairing with READ_ONCE()s added); since
writes happen inside critical sections, only the write and not the read
of RMWs needs to be atomic, thus WRITE_ONCE(var, var +/- X) is
sufficient.

After a system bootup and 3 parallel kernel builds, a partial output
of the debug objects stats file was:
pool_free :5101
pool_pcp_free :4181
pool_min_free :220
pool_used :104172
pool_max_used :171920
on_free_list :0
objs_allocated:39268280
objs_freed :39160031
More than 39 millions debug objects had since been allocated and then
freed. The pool_max_used, however, was only about 172k. So this is a
lot of extra overhead in freeing and allocating objects from slabs. It
may also causes the slabs to be more fragmented and harder to reclaim.
Make the freeing of excess debug objects less aggressive by freeing them at
a maximum frequency of 10Hz and about 1k objects at each round of freeing.
With that change applied, the partial output of the debug objects stats
file after similar actions became:
pool_free :5901
pool_pcp_free :3742
pool_min_free :1022
pool_used :104805

In fill_pool(), the pool_lock is acquired and then released once per debug

operations are extra overhead.

Most workloads will allocate a bunch of memory objects, work on them
and then freeing all or most of them. So just having a percpu free pool
may not reduce the pool_lock contention significantly if large number
of objects are being used.
To help those situations, we are now doing lookahead allocation and
freeing of the debug objects into and out of the percpu free pool. This
will hopefully reduce the number of times the pool_lock needs to be
taken and hence its contention level.

When a multi-threaded workload does a lot of small memory object
allocations and deallocations, it may cause the allocation and freeing of
many debug objects. This will make the global pool_lock a bottleneck in the
performance of the workload. Since interrupts are disabled when acquiring
the pool_lock, it may even cause hard lockups to happen.
To reduce contention of the global pool_lock, add a percpu debug object
free pool that can be used to buffer some of the debug object allocation
and freeing requests without acquiring the pool_lock. Each CPU will now
have a percpu free pool that can hold up to a maximum of 64 debug
objects. Allocation and freeing requests will go to the percpu free pool

The current value of the early boot static pool size, 1024 is not big
enough for systems with large number of CPUs with timer or/and workqueue
objects selected. As the results, systems have 60+ CPUs with both timer
and workqueue objects enabled could trigger "ODEBUG: Out of memory.
ODEBUG disabled".
Some debug objects are allocated during the early boot. Enabling some
options like timers or workqueue objects may increase the size required
significantly with large number of CPUs. For example,
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS:
No. CPUs x 2 (worker pool) objects:
start_kernel
workqueue_init_early
init_worker_pool
init_timer_key
debug_object_init
plus No. CPUs objects (CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS):
sched_init
hrtick_rq_init
hrtimer_init
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_WORK:
No. CPUs objects:
vmalloc_init
__init_work
plus No. CPUs x 6 (workqueue) objects:
workqueue_init_early
alloc_workqueue
__alloc_workqueue_key
alloc_and_link_pwqs
init_pwq
Also, plus No. CPUs objects:
perf_event_init
__init_srcu_struct
init_srcu_struct_fields
init_srcu_struct_nodes
__init_work
However, none of the things are actually used or required before
debug_objects_mem_init() is invoked, so just move the call right before
vmalloc_init().
According to tglx, "the reason why the call is at this place in
start_kernel() is historical. It's because back in the days when
debugobjects were added the memory allocator was enabled way later than
today."

While debugging an issue debugobject tracking warned about an annotation
issue of an object on stack. It turned out that the issue was due to the
object in concern being on a different stack which was due to another
issue.
Thomas suggested to print the pointers and the location of the stack for
the currently running task. This helped to figure out that the object was
on the wrong stack.
As this is general useful information for debugging similar issues, make
the error message more informative by printing the pointers.

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() iterates over the to be freed memory region in

The newly added global free list allows to avoid lengthy pool_list
iterations in free_obj_work() by putting objects either into the pool list
when the fill level of the pool is below the maximum or by putting them on
the global free list immediately.
As the pool is now guaranteed to never exceed the maximum fill level this
allows to remove the batch removal from pool list in free_obj_work().
Split free_object() into two parts, so the actual queueing function can be
reused without invoking schedule_work() on every invocation.

free_object() adds objects to the pool list and schedules work when the
pool list is larger than the pool size. The worker handles the actual
kfree() of the object by iterating the pool list until the pool size is
below the maximum pool size again.
To iterate the pool list, pool_lock has to be held and the objects which
should be freed() need to be put into temporary storage so pool_lock can be
dropped for the actual kmem_cache_free() invocation. That's a pointless and
expensive exercise if there is a large number of objects to free.
In such a case its better to evaulate the fill level of the pool in
free_objects() and queue the object to free either in the pool list or if
it's full on a separate global free list.
The worker can then do the following simpler operation:
- Move objects back from the global free list to the pool list if the
pool list is not longer full.
- Remove the remaining objects in a single list move operation from the
global free list and do the kmem_cache_free() operation lockless from
the temporary list head.
In fill_pool() the global free list is checked as well to avoid real
allocations from the kmem cache.
Add the necessary list head and a counter for the number of objects on the
global free list and export that counter via sysfs:
max_chain :79
max_loops :8147
warnings :0
fixups :0
pool_free :1697
pool_min_free :346
pool_used :15356
pool_max_used :23933
on_free_list :39
objs_allocated:32617
objs_freed :16588
Nothing queues objects on the global free list yet. This happens in a
follow up change.

__debug_check_no_obj_freed() can be an expensive operation depending on the
size of memory freed. It already exports the maximum chain walk length via
debugfs, but this only records the maximum of a single memory chunk.
Though there is no information about the total number of objects inspected
for a __debug_check_no_obj_freed() operation, which might be significantly
larger when a huge memory region is freed.
Aggregate the number of objects inspected for a single invocation of
__debug_check_no_obj_freed() and export it via sysfs.
The resulting output of /sys/kernel/debug/debug_objects/stats looks like:
max_chain :121

To reduce the amount of contention on the pool_lock, the actual
kmem_cache_free() of the debug objects will be delayed if the pool_lock
is busy. This will temporarily increase the amount of free objects
available at the free pool when the system is busy. As a result,
the number of kmem_cache allocation and freeing is reduced.
To further reduce the lock operations free debug objects in batches of
four.

On a large SMP systems with hundreds of CPUs, the current thresholds
for allocating and freeing debug objects (256 and 1024 respectively)
may not work well. This can cause a lot of needless calls to
kmem_aloc() and kmem_free() on those systems.
To alleviate this thrashing problem, the object freeing threshold
is now increased to "1024 + # of CPUs * 32". Whereas the object
allocation threshold is increased to "256 + # of CPUs * 4". That
should make the debug objects subsystem scale better with the number
of CPUs available in the system.

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is
tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the
activation is illegal.
In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in
their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core.
Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks.
To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let
the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If
yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke
fixup callback.
This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test
with all debugobjects supports enabled.
At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object
which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point
to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change
such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected
behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function
stub_timer.

If debug_object_fixup() return non-zero when problem has been fixed.
But the code got it backwards, it taks 0 as fixup successfully. So fix
it.

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem.
But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved.
This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int.
Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real'
type.
This patch (of 7):
The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks
for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug
code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And
debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful,
otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean.
A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for
arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return
type.
Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value
incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

On my bigger s390 systems I always get "Out of memory.
ODEBUG disabled". Since the number of objects is needed at
compile time, we can not change the size dynamically before
the caches etc are available. Doubling the size seems to
do the trick. Since it is init data it will be freed anyway,
this should be ok.

Direct conversion of one KERN_DEBUG message without DEBUG definition
(suggested by Josh Triplett)
That message will now be disabled by default. (see
Documentation/CodingStyle Chapter 13)
